i haven’t blogged in awhile. i haven’t blogged because somehow i managed to catch the plague some evil vicious beast of a cold/flu thing and i spent the entire weekend looking like death and feeling even worse not to mention that fact that i have a full time job in which i am expected to look presentable and be charming and was resistant to using more than one of the five sad little sick days that i am allotted per year in the first half of january even though i had all the worst kinds of tummy upsets, hives and the occasional bloody nose (this is the part where you should be relieved that you don’t work with me) plus i need my job to pay for the expensive puffs plus with lotion facial tissues that i absolutely have to have when i am ill because my high maintenance nose is too sensitive for kleenex so i have been struggling through life like a hideous drugged up zombie but i know that’s no excuse.
anyways.
this morning i made my bed for the first time since i got sick. not a moment too soon either because i found an entire box worth of aforementioned diva tissues, all used and crumpled under my pillows and between my sheets. an upsetting discovery considering that a perfectly good waste basket lives only two feet away from my bed. this rudely awakened me to the fact that i should maybe put less thought into analyzing why i’m single and more thought into figuring out just when i became so vile. i am well aware that there is probably a connection there, so tonight tomorrow night i will clean my sheets and move my trash can closer to the bed.
see that? problem solving and personal growth. i’m back.
- e.k.
oh, and please feel free to send me thoughts, musings and or anecdotes regarding reasons for singleness so that we all have some reading material on the off chance that i catch the plague again. whywsblog@gmail.com
